      Dr. Benjamin is great. While I was hoping for a clearer understanding and treatment plan for my memory, focus and balance concerns, Dr. Benjamin reviewed them and provided an explanation that normal aging is the controlling factor. We also discussed and implemented a medication modification designed to achieve improved focus and combat daytime sleepiness.
